Reversed sequential therapy with cyproterone acetate was effective for treating women with hirsutism and related conditions.
research New Nonsteroidal Molecules as Blockers of the Steroidogenic Pathway
New nonsteroidal molecules can potentially increase dihydrotestosterone in neurons by blocking certain enzymes, without affecting prostate and seminal vesicle weight.
research An Open Randomized Comparative Study of an Oral Contraceptive Containing Ethinyl Estradiol and Cyproterone Acetate with and without the GnRH Analogue Goserelin in the Long-Term Treatment of Hirsutism
The oral contraceptive alone is the preferred treatment for hirsutism, as adding the GnRH analog showed no significant benefit.
research Profound bradycardia after addition of diltiazem to a beta blocker.
Adding diltiazem to a beta blocker can cause dangerously slow heart rates.
